At Camping & Bungalowpark Adelhof in Drenthe, you’ll find specially constructed, paved camper pitches designed for motorhomes—giving you stable parking from the moment you arrive, plus easy access to a full suite of on-park facilities and nature-rich surroundings.

Why paved motorhome pitches are a smart choice

Paved surfaces solve common motorhome pain points without complicating your setup. While every vehicle and trip is different, these universal benefits make them a favorite among experienced travelers:

Stability and traction

• Hardstanding reduces sinkage and rutting, even when the ground is wet.
• Tires gain predictable grip, helping you maneuver without churning up the pitch.

Faster, cleaner setup

• You roll into position and stay put—less fiddling with mats or boards.
• Entry steps, storage bays, and awnings stay cleaner because you aren’t treading through soft ground.

Easier leveling

• On a firm base, most motorhomes level quickly with standard ramps or built-in systems.
• A solid surface helps your vehicle remain level throughout the stay.

Consistent year-round convenience

• In shoulder seasons or after rain, paved areas remain reliably usable.
• Departure is simpler—no stress about getting stuck on wet grass.

Practical tips for motorhome guests

Make the most of your paved base with a few simple habits:

1. Bring leveling ramps even on hardstanding. A solid surface makes leveling faster and more secure.
2. Carry adequate electric cable and adapters to suit different post placements. Keep cabling tidy to avoid trip hazards.
3. Manage water efficiently. If you want on‑pitch water and grey‑water drainage, consider booking a luxury pitch; otherwise, plan quick refills and responsible disposal using park facilities.
4. Protect your awning with proper pegs and tensioning; paved ground underfoot often means better drainage nearby, but weather can still shift quickly.
5. Keep things clean with a small doormat and boot tray—hardstanding helps, and a clean entry saves time tidying inside the van.
6. Follow barbecue guidance: barbecues are allowed if placed on a stone surface or at least 30 cm above the grass, and not during periods of extreme drought.
7. Review pond rules if you plan to fish: one rod per person, no bait boats, and no swimming or boating (including pets) in the pond.
